chassisShow
The chassisShow can be especially helpful in monitoring the health of the device. This command provides information on installed blade,
fan assembly, and power supply assembly FRUs. In addition, customer-supplied information can also be viewed, if included, for each
FRU type. Four measurements to note are:
• Power Consume Factor: Maximum power allocated for a given FRU. Except for power supply assemblies, all power is shown as
a negative number.
• Power Usage: If shown, this reflects real-time power usage for the FRU.
• Time Awake: Time that the system as been powered on since the last reboot.
• Time Alive: Reflects the total power-on time for the FRU (when available).
The following examples show output from this command.
NOTE
